Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy—who is also a licensed medical doctor—is trying to burnish his legacy, but he already tarnished it beyond repair. As measles deaths mount in Pennsylvania, Cassidy is suddenly very concerned about how anti-vaxx the Trump administration is. Who could possibly have known? It’s not that Cassidy is wrong to be concerned. Three people have already died from… Source Powered by WPeMatico
Ed Sheeran’s tour is on thin ice after opener Macklemore was pulled from the lineup after saying “free Palestine” during a performance in New Jersey. “A big part of the reason why I wanted to do this tour in the first place is so that I could stand up in stadiums like this and say two words that are very, very dear to my heart: Free Palestine,” he told the Sept. 4 audience.

According to the first round of ratings, “60 Minutes” saw an overall ratings decline of 21% from its last season premiere. Even more troubling for CBS, ratings were down 33% in the key demographic of 25- to 54-year olds—viewers most sought… Source Powered by WPeMatico
